Match a customer deposit to an invoice
Matching tells TALISK_HQ that a bank deposit paid a specific invoice, so the money is recorded once and the invoice clears from Accounts Receivable.
On Ledger › Banking, find the incoming deposit and click Match to invoice. The picker shows two groups:
- Open invoices that this deposit could pay. Pick one and confirm; TALISK_HQ records the payment and relieves Accounts Receivable. A deposit larger than the invoice balance is not matched to that one invoice, so nothing is stranded.
- Undeposited receipts already sitting in Undeposited Funds. Select one or more; the total you select must equal the deposit exactly, then confirm to clear them into the bank.
The deposit must still be unmatched. Deposits that are transfers between your own accounts, or ecommerce payouts, are handled by their own flows and are not offered here. If you match the wrong line, open it and click Unmatch to reverse it; the payment and any category it superseded are restored.
Good to know: The Banking picker matches one deposit to one open invoice, or several
undeposited receipts to a single deposit. It records the payment and clears the
invoice or Undeposited Funds. It does not create the invoice, and it does not
change the tax. To undo a match, use the Unmatch control on the matched line.
